ABOUT GRETCHEN Creator of The Healing Project

Hi, I’m Gretchen! I’m a somatic trauma specialist and energetic intuitive, passionate about helping people release trauma stored in the body. By guiding the movement of undischarged energy, I support those on their journey to healing and self-discovery.


As a trauma survivor myself, I know firsthand how childhood and intimate partner abuse can affect every part of your life. That’s why I’ve dedicated my work to helping others break free from those patterns and find self-acceptance, self-compassion, and a path to self-regulated healing.
